SETTING PROCEDURES
Notes:
•The CAMERA ID stops at the edges of the monitor screen.
•The CAMERA ID moves faster if any of L/R/U/Dis kept pressed for a second or
more.
2. Light Control Setting (ALC/ELC)
You can select the mode for adjusting the lens iris.
ALC:If you use the auto iris lens, select this parameter.
ELC:If you use a fixed or manual iris lens, select this parameter.
The factory default setting is ALC.
1. Move the cursor to ALC/ELC.
2. Select ALC or ELC.
Cautions: 
1. Under bright lighting conditions such as outdoors, use an ALC type lens because the
ELC control range is not wide enough under these conditions.
2. Use an ALC type lens if the following phenomena occur:
•Strong smear and/or blooming on highlight objects such as spotlight or sunlight
from windows.
•Noticeable flicker in the picture and/or color rendition variations.
3. If ELC is selected, SUPER-D2 and SHUTTER are not available and white balance mode
is automatically set to ATW1 or ATW2 previously set.
4. If ELC is selected for ALC/ELC and used with the fixed iris lens in, the focal depth
becomes shallower than with the ALC type lens. Therefore, the range of focus-to-object
distance becomes narrower.
2-1. ALC Mode with SUPER-D2 ON
Super Dynamic2Function (SUPER-D2)
The important object in a scene is usually placed in the center of the monitor screen. In the
SUPER-D2 mode, more photometric weight is given to the center of the screen (where the
important object is located) than to the edge of the screen (where a bright backlight would
most likely be located). You can use the SUPER-D2function if you select ALC. It eliminates
interference by strong background lighting which makes the camera picture dark, such as a
spotlight.

the hue (chroma phase) level.
10-6 BW
This function lets you automatically switch from color to black-and-white pictures in low light
conditions such as at night.
1. Move the cursor to BW.
2. Select AUTO1, AUTO2, EXT, ON or OFF using Lor R.
AUTO1:The camera selects black and white mode if the picture is dark, or color mode
if the picture is bright enough.
AUTO2:Applying AUTO1 may cause malfunction when using a source of near-infrared
light at night because the illuminance changes significantly when switching
between a color picture and a black-and-white picture.  This can be prevented by
using the AUTO2 setting to detect the type of light source.
Note:Because the type of light source is detected based on information received
from the CCD image pickup element, an object that is constantly moving or
has the same color as its background may not always be properly recognized.
When choosing the AUTO2 mode, make sure to use a light source having a
wavelength of 800 nm or more.
EXT:Color picture reverts to black-and-white picture when an external day/night
switching signal is received (refer to alarm connections).
ON:Black-and-white mode enabled.
OFF:Color mode enabled.
The factory default setting is OFF.
3. Select AUTO1 or AUTO2 using Lor R.
4. Press SET.
The AUTO1 or AUTO2 menu appears on
the monitor screen.
5. Move the cursor to LEVEL and select the
illuminance level using Lor R.

Notes:
•When the camera is not used in a Panasonic Intelligent CCTV System, select OFF.
Otherwise, video equipment may malfunction because of the alarm signal misinterpreta-
tion for a time code signal.
•The motion detector may malfunction when the lightning equipment continuously turns
on and off, or when ELC mode is selected for ALC/ELC.
•Set MASK SET over the areas where leaves or curtains etc. are swaying.
•Adjust the detection level on the menu to prevent misinterpretation under low light con-
ditions with noise.
•It takes about 0.2 seconds for the alarm signal to reach the VCR’s alarm terminal after
the camera detects the moving object.
•The motion detector is not specifically intended to prevent theft or fire.
